In one of the world’s oldest port cities, Forte Kochi, retains the splendid charm of Cochin’s colonial era.
Once a wealthy family’s residential home, this boutique retreat was originally built by the Dutch in the 1860s. Today it has been restored to its former glory with eye-catching canary yellow walls, arched gothic doors with stained glass windows and roofs raftered with dark-wood beams. Post explorations, the courtyard, dripping in foliage, is the most coveted spot with a glistening blue swimming pool lined by wooden sun loungers and tables dotting the tiles where you can breakfast on sugar-dusted waffles and refuel with rejuvenating cups of coffee. In the evening, the space is lit by European-style streetlamps, ideal for pre-dinner drinks and nibbles. A more formal affair is offered at the Jetty restaurant offering seafood spreads and fresh catch of the day.

Facilities
There’s a fishing port next door where the chefs buy the fresh catch of the day served in the Jetty Restaurant. Breakfast and dinner are often served in the pool courtyard.
Ayurmana offers Ayurvedic therapies including massages, body scrubs, facials and steam baths.
The Chinese Fishing Nets, the old granaries and St. Francis Church are all nearby. About 50 metres from the hotel lies the bastion, Fort Emmanuel. Head to the fishing port nearby at dawn and watch the trawlers arrive hauling in fish, lobsters and prawns.
